Lawrence S. Pertillar - Never Give Up. Believe In Yourself. You Must!

2014-06-11 23

'Why should I show concern to someone,
Who has not expressed that to me? '

This unheard but seen in the faces of children.
Those who are fathered.
But orphaned by those mothers-to-be.

'Why should I keep my faith filled with hope?
When that patience I never witnessed,
Being reflected to center upon me to feel and see.'

And I want to sympathize with those lonely.
I do.
I want to show those alone,
My empathy delivered as proof.
I do!

I would do this if asked to choose.
But...
Overwhelmed I am by so many in need.
No power to correct this do I have within me.

Although I whisper in the ears of those near who can hear...
Never give up.
Believe...
In yourself.
You must!

Never give up.
Believe...
In yourself.
You must!

Never give up.
Believe...
In yourself.
You must!
Never give up.

Lawrence S. Pertillar
